Abstract
Research projects have resulted in the development of improved guidance for assessing the remaining strength of corroded pipelines. New guidance has been developed for assessing: Closely spaced corrosion defects Corrosion defects in high strength pipelines Corrosion defects in pipelines subject to combined internal pressure and external loading Corrosion defects in pipelines subject to cyclic pressure loading Corrosion defects in vintage, low toughness pipelines This Guidance Document is a revision to the version issued in 2002 (PRCI Report Catalog No. L51958). It provides recommended practice for assessing the remaining strength of pipelines� containing metal loss defects. The methods provided in this document are intended to be used to assess corrosion defects in carbon steel pipelines that have been designed to recognized pipeline codes. These codes include but are not limited to: ASME B31.4, ASME B31.8, ASME B31.11, PD 8010, DNV OS-F101, IGEM/TD/1, ISO 13623 and CSA Z662.
